Medicare allowed amount for participating (non-QP) physicians, before deductible, coinsurance and claim adjustments. Not a patient’s bill or a hospital charge.

What 74425 covers

Antegrade urography uses radiographic imaging to show the renal collecting system and ureter after contrast is injected through percutaneous urinary access, commonly a nephrostomy catheter. A radiologist or interventional radiologist evaluates how contrast fills and passes through the urinary tract, including in patients being assessed for obstruction, narrowing, or a leak. The service is typically performed in a hospital or imaging department where fluoroscopic equipment and the existing access route are available.

Report 74425 for the antegrade contrast examination and its radiologic supervision and interpretation, rather than for catheter placement or exchange alone. The record should identify the access route, describe contrast flow and the images obtained, and include the interpreting clinician’s findings. CMS recognizes professional and technical components: report modifier 26 for the interpretation, modifier TC for the equipment and staff, or no component modifier when billing the global service. The components are separately priced by CMS.
